Happy Anniversary, Liverpool Football Club

125 Years ago today, Liverpool FC played their first ever game

Liverpool FC played their first ever game at Anfield by beating Rotheram 7-1

Funny old match report from the Liverpool Mercury, 3rd September 1892 edition. No mention of the historic occasion, no attendance apart from describing the turn out as “moderate” and no team line up. Liverpool won 7-1, but you wouldn’t think so, judging by this underwhelming article. Obviously written by a cricket correspondent or an Evertonian!
